Great! How?

Lists with dots

To make a list you have to use special commands that sandwich your entire list, PLUS a command for each item in the list. Take a look at this:

<ul>
<li>My first list item (which is why the code is "li", for List Item)
<li>My second list item (again it has "li" because it is an item)
<li>My third list item (hey, this is making sense now!)
</ul>

That code will make this:

My first list item (which is why the code is "li", for List Item)

My second list item (again it has "li" because it is an item)

My third list item (hey, this is making sense now!)

The <li> is pretty easy to see, but also notice the <ul> and </ul>.

You type <ul> like the first piece of bread, then <li> for each of the contents, then </ul> for the second piece of bread.

This made what is called an "unordered list", which is why the bread uses the code ul, for Unordered List.

Lists with numbers

Just like the list with dots, to make a numbered list you have to use special commands that sandwich your entire list, PLUS a command for each item in the list. Take a look at this:

Use <ol> and </ol> as the bread if you want to make an "Ordinal List", which is named that way because it uses Ordinals, or numbers:
